FALL TEMPERATURES ARRIVE THIS WEEK; LOWS IN THE 40s… After the storms earlier today, we have a streak of beautiful, fall days coming up now that a cold front has moved across the region. Overnight lows at 6AM on Monday morning will be in the 40s in many spots with 50s likely closer to the coast. See the attached map for the specific overnight low you can expect in your hometown. Afternoon highs will be in the upper 70s and low 80s tomorrow.

TROPICAL WAVE IN CARIBBEAN SEA LIKELY TO DEVELOP INTO TROPICAL STORM… A tropical wave currently moving through the Lesser Antilles has a high (70%) chance of becoming a named tropical storm later this week as the system moves through the very warm waters of the Caribbean Sea. Environmental conditions are highly favorable for a tropical storm to develop. The model guidance associated with the system shows movement to the north, potentially toward Puerto Rico, Hispaniola, or Cuba later this week. The odds of the system moving into the Gulf currently seem quite low.

We were fortunate to only have one tornado warning during this event. If you blinked, you missed it! It was only in effect for about 5 minutes for parts of southern Santa Rosa County near Gulf Breeze.

The attached image shows the warning polygon. The polygon included Pensacola Beach, Gulf Breeze, Tiger Point, Oriole Beach, and Midway (FL).

Milton, Pace, Navarre, and nearly all of Pensacola were never included in the warning.

NWS cancelled the warning as the rotation in the storm quickly weakened, thankfully.

BENEFICIAL RAIN ACROSS THE REGION… I just checked our digital rain gauge here at the RedZone Weather studio in Brewton, Alabama. We picked up 1.88″ of total rainfall with this event. Rain amounts varied quite a bit with totals in excess of 3″ in parts of southern Baldwin County. Some communities in Covington County picked up less than one half inch in total.
